Imprinting in Animals
[ send me this essay ]
This 8 page report discusses the processes and results of imprinting in animals. Dictionaries define imprinting as an “indelibly distinguishing effect or influence.” As such a statement applies to animals, it is an irreversible influence. Whether it is the homing “device” or ability of salmon, the ability of newborn animals of all species to recognize their parent, or the mating choices of any creature, what has been imprinted is what serves as one of the strongest determinants of their behavior. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

In What Ways Can Animals Communicate With Humans?
[ send me this essay ]
6 pages in length. Humans often forget they are not the only living beings who have the ability to communicate both within and outside of their own species. This oversight causes considerable frustration on the humans' part inasmuch as they fail to understand what animals are "saying" to them through other means beyond verbal such as body language and sounds. People have become so dependent upon speech as the primary way in which to communicate that they are often unwilling to accept there is any other way; however, humans are not the only species that use vocabulary but just as with any foreign language, they are not able to understand an animal's grunts, growls and barks until studying what those "words" mean to that species. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

International Trade Of Endangered Species And The Bush Administration: Elephant Tusks
[ send me this essay ]
11 pages in length. Examining the Bush Administration's approach toward international trade of endangered species gives one a significantly better understanding of how mankind's selfishness has created a perilous situation for the animals. Changes in climate, destruction of habitat and loss of food source have all occurred at the hands of man, a greedy species who only looks out for his own best interests. However, what is becoming tremendously clear as the world closes in upon the twenty-first century is the fact that all the detrimental actions humanity has carelessly thrust upon the planet are coming back to haunt all species, including man. Soon there will be fewer and fewer animals left to exploit, with the elephant population representing one of the most immediately threatened of all wild animals because the Bush Administration blatantly supports lifting the existing ban on ivory trade. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
